Folks,When the Republican Senate filibuster begins, what a moment in history that will be.Wealthy Republicans with government provided quality health insurance denying Americans basic health coverage.I hope we are ready. We need to be mobilized.

Imagine:-100,000 on the Mall and in front of the Capital in Washington, DC, while the filibuster is underway

-thousands at every Senator's office participating in the filibuster,

-the senate chamber filled with folks denied health insurance or not able to pay the exorbitant premiums

-protests outside every Senator's state offices

Let the TV cameras capture this moment in history,as they did with the civil rights marches and Viet Nam war protests

Need something different to do on Thursday night? Concerned about where our economy is going and the future of our country? Head across our favorite bridge to Hood River and the Skylight Theatre to preview Collapse, the 82 minute 'buzz film' of the Toronto Film Festival. Read a review here and see a clip here.

Show times are 6:30 and 8:30 pm. Get there early enough to buy a beer and a slice of pizza. After the show, there will be a film crew there interviewing people's reactions!

Good. Now Mark It and Drop It Off! Better yet, see if any of your friends or neighbors need theirs dropped off, and run a Ballot Carpool!

Need suggestions? The WA State Democrats endorsed a NO vote on I-1033, which is listed right below the instructions on how to fill out the ballot. Also endorsed was a YES vote on I-71 to uphold the domestic partners legislation.

If you'd like some discussion first, be sure to head on over to Dallesport for tomorrow night's Klickitat Democrats meeting. It will be a full night, with presentations on the ballot issues, health care reform, and introduction of a 2010 LD candidate by none other than George Fearing, who ran against Doc Hastings last time around.

Finally, Klickitat Democrats now have a Facebook Page! Come visit, we need all the fans we can get.

Due to scheduling difficulties, we are postponing the meeting with Sharon Smith but are working on a future joint meeting with Skamania Democrats. With the election upon us, there are a few initiatives and referenda on the state ballot to discuss, as well as some more local items. The health care reform debate is ever evolving, and we will have a panel discussion on that as well. Please join us for an evening of information and Democratic fellowship.
